Pärson is an investor in fuboTV through leading venture capital fund Northzone, where he has been a General Partner since 2004. He has appeared several times in Forbes’ prestigious Midas List.

“Like our recently-appointed Chairman of the Board Edgar Bronfman Jr., PJ was an early champion of fuboTV,” said David Gandler, co-founder and CEO, fuboTV. “I’m looking forward to working even more closely with PJ as fuboTV enters the next growth phase, including our intention to uplist to a major stock exchange in the coming months.”

Commented Pärson: “fuboTV has shown that they are absolutely world-class in developing this vMVPD technology, accompanying the tremendous movement from the old paradigm of cable TV subscriptions to the vMVPD, where customers access the right content on all kinds of devices at compelling price points. The content strategy around live sports has been appreciated by hundreds of thousands of users.”

He added: “I’m excited to continue to be a part of fuboTV’s development into a massive company. I’ve been impressed by the clarity of vision and speed of execution by David and his team since we’ve invested in 2015. This reminds me a lot about the phenomenal adventure of Spotify, and our early days.”
